Day 1837

 I woke up at 8, but didn't get up until almost 10.  I had a cool game going.  Then it was pet stuff and breakfast.  Then it was out to the garage.

I started by making a couple of connections that I'l left from yesterday.  Then I started investigating how the radio control box worked.  Fortunately I'd left a schematic in the box.  Unfortunately there were parts I couldn't under stand.  I started with one of the box inputs.  I traced out one of the inputs.  Things didn't make sense.  After a lot of work I removed one of the switches in the circuit.  It was broken.  That cost me a lot of time.

The next step was a wire pair the disappeared under the body.  I had to take some of the flooring out to trace it.  It turned out to be an unused wire.  By then it was 1:30 and time for lunch.

After lunch I put the flooring together and started on some other wiring.  I decided to change the way the battery and clock maintenance were wired.  Then I tore out the top button wiring.  I'm going to need to use that switch to replace the broken one.

By then it was almost 5.  I wrote a todo list for tomorrow and went inside.  After some surfing Ellen fixed sausage and pancakes for dinner.

After dinner I surfed the whole evening.  I'm hoping that I get the whole rig together tomorrow.
